I live in South Florida (Hot is our middle name), and haven't lost a word yet!

I've only had one problem with the ink disappearing - a relative left a check I'd signed on the dashboard of his truck in Texas and the signature disappeared. I don't know if it came back - I wrote him a new check with a different pen.

I think the space would have to be pretty hot to make the ink disappear. I haven't had any problems with storing my notes in a hot car during the summer months, so you should be fine. The only time I lose ink is when I erase too hard and writing on the reverse of the paper also disappears. There is usually enough residue left that I can fill in the notes that accidentally get erased.

I've found it's kind of like disappearing ink in warmer temps (like leaving papers in the car during the summer) but once the paper cools off - everything comes back. AND in cold temps - things that were erased - lightly appear again. Neither appearing or disappearing has ever affected an entire document - just random spots here and there. Even with that being said they are still my absolute favorite pens and I use them daily. The new colored set is fantastic too!

I have kept in my book bag and in the classroom and it has not disappeared.

Yes. The clear friction ball at the end of the pen is what is used to rub on the ink to make it erase by friction.

Best answer is "likely, but will depend". Here's my experience and why: writes ok on a sheet of copy paper on which I've run water, then wiped excess water off with my hand... if you use course spiral-bound paper it will likely write but might also tear the dampened coarse fibers; writes fine on widely used "Rite-In-The-Rain" all-weather journal paper (by J.L. Darling, Corp., Item 1735, ISBN:978-1-60134-050-4; www.RiteintheRain.com), but there may be other very 'waxy' treated rainproof paper that will cause any pen to skip.

I dont think the ink might dry out, but you have a selector to be choosen when you have to move it, you can put the printer in moving mode and the ink will remain full in the entire system. there are an small plastic caps located in the ink tanks when you do the first charge, remain this caps because you will use it when you might move or store your printer in some place, this caps will prevent the oxigen get inside the ink

That's only happened if the pen gets put into the washing machine. Otherwise, I've never had issues with them.

I doubt if the ink has dried up. The reason it stops writing, is that the pen barrel is basically sealed inside the utensil and not allowed to vent. Just remove the pen barrel and blow into it. It'll start writing again until another vacuum occurs. Yeah I know it's a pain. I seriously doubted that the manufacturers only put in 1 mm of ink into a 2 1/2" barrel and ink that thick doesn't dry out that easily. I also think the reason that BIC pens have a little hole in its side is to avoid the vacuum problem.

You might just put it in the Boogie Board holder on the back side of the board after the board is in the case where it can't hurt the writing surface. My case is a stretchy pocket with 2 magnetic snap looking latches to hold the flap closed.

Yes, I was sitting at my desk the other day and my Lexmark started printing. I was surprised by the paper being spit out of it. Someone in an adjoining office, which we share a wireless network, printed his document on my printer. I have not followed up to discover more information on how and why.

Yes. Even when they stop working, you can still see the ink. How's that grab ya?

Good question. I just gave up on my pen and put it in the recycling bucket. I got it to work for about a day but that was it. No amount of tinkering, cleaning, swearing could make it work. It is a piece of junk. My suggestion: get rid of it and get a pen not made in China.

the pen has a cap that sits over the writing tip out of the box. Pull NOT screw off the lid. if you unscrew it it will be just the ink cartridge. the cap can then be placed over the window punch tip.

I am not sure cause I sent to my nephew as a gift but he has had no problem keeping the pen. He has several books now and loves it.

I have used these pens for years, but I have never deliberately left them in a vehicle for an extended period of time, maybe the occasional weekend here or there, but I don't think it should be a problem, they don't seem to be too sensitive to heat or cold. I recommend them, I regularly use them to write on wet or frosty items, when a Sharpie can't. I think would put your pen(s) in a small zipper bag just to be safe until you see hav they react in your climate this summer. Good idea keeping one with your CERT gear, I should probably thow one in with mine too.

Haven't tried it with these pens, I can only guess that the ink would be removed.

No, the cartridge that is included in with each pen can be filled with out dip it in the ink. Only fill it with a syringe and wait the ink "get off" through the pen and begin to write.

I know the pen must have the paper, but I don't know if the ink is special or not. When the ink is fresh it's nice. It's when it gets old that it's harder to use. Sorry I can't help you more.
